Wed, 20 Mar 2019 12:29:34 +0000https://canyoustandthetruth.com/?p=2318Manly P. Hall, in his book ‘’Lectures on Ancient Philosophy’’, underlined the esoteric and Gnostic symbolism hidden behind the story.

‘’In the allegory of the beanstalk, Jack is the initiate climbing upward toward perfection. The beanstalk has two significances.

First, it is the secret doctrine which may grow up to its fullness in a single night, if that night be regarded as the duration of a soul in the mortal state. The beanstalk is further symbolic of the soul itself, up which consciousness must climb to discover the divine sphere from which it was exiled.

It is noteworthy that when Jack reaches the upper world, where one would naturally expect beauty and tranquillity to reign, he finds instead that his newly-discovered sphere is the dwelling place of a fierce ogre (ogre: a man-eating giant in folklore) who has the distressing proclivity of using strangers to supply the requirements of his menu.

This giant is the ancient demiurgus— the lord of the world, the royal autocrat, the vast tyrant who opposes all who would climb out of their materiality.

He is selfishness, egotism, lust, and hate. He is the epitome of all physical attachment, and the appetites by which man is inclined toward the corporeal state. He is the giant of form, the hero of little minds, the fetish of the materialist, the god of those who worship through the senses alone, the supreme genius of the physical-minded, the magnificence to which fools bow down.

Those who would escape the clutches of this giant must be wise indeed, for they must outwit themselves.

In the ancient writings it is said that all will fail except a fortuitous destiny move with them, for skill will not suffice, prayers will be unavailing, and only the graciousness of the gods can insure success.’’

Fri, 08 Mar 2019 00:41:43 +0000https://canyoustandthetruth.com/?p=2303Through his desire to acquire more and more skills, man will constantly incorporate into his body the technological tools that will give him additional capabilities, increasingly distancing himself from his nature.

When I found the article that follows, some thoughts came to my mind, and I want to share them with you!

“Fate is inescapable” the ancients said… and they were right!

When Phillip Corso came in contact with Rosswell’s beings for the first time, he thought these beings were biorobots! … But unfortunately, they were the time travelers- men of the future!

With absolute mathematical precision, our current choices lead us to the future generation that we finally came to be …

Let’s see, however, what these miserable beings of the future who are our future selves have said …

“We are here in your present presence asking for help’. He confirmed that we now (as humans of today, in the current phase of the evolution of our species) possess a unique combination of spirit and matter, allowing us to come into contact with the Source of Genesis from whence life on earth springs. This is the purpose of our race’s contact with you. We come here from the future to correct the mistakes that have made us the human species we have become!”

But these mistakes, not only cannot be corrected, but the course towards their fulfillment is accelerating.

Through his desire to acquire more and more skills, man will constantly incorporate into his body the technological tools that will give him additional capabilities, increasingly distancing himself from his nature.

This will be an inevitable consequence, corresponding to the benefits of new technology. Thus, the connection between man and machine will grow tighter until man will no longer be a natural being, and will be transformed into a bionic construct.

In the course that we have been following as human beings all these centuries of our existence, we have neither learned to control our impulses nor our lower nature.

As things stand, we are preparing to swallow the biggest bait for the sake of our selfishness and prosperity.

The unification of our human nature with the machine will not only distance us from our nature, but also from the spiritual source of our creation. This path will have no return!

9 Ways we’ll be superhuman by 2030

PREPARE FOR AN UPGRADE

You’re only human, right? Perhaps not for long. advances in biology, wearable technology and pharmaceuticals could give us superhero-style abilities, according to Rohit Talwar, futurist and CEO of fast future. Here are some of the cooler powers we can hope for by 2030.

INSTANT KNOWLEDGE

‘In the next 10-15 years, we could be able to perform instant content updates to the human brain,’ says Talwar. this could be uploading a new language, a map or key info before a meeting or date. Of course, this would require our brains to be connected to some pretty serious Wi-Fi, which might raise security concerns, so for confidential information, expect plug-in memory devices.

HEALING FACTOR

‘Subcutaneous implants would detect pathogens in the immediate environment and provide antibodies to protect us from specific contagious diseases,’ says talwar. This could have numerous benefits. coughs and sneezes would no longer spread diseases, the impending global antibiotic crisis would be averted and handwashing would become a redundant activity.

3D PRINTED WINGS

‘we could fly as close to the sun as we like with customized 3d printed wings, which are perfectly designed to bring aerodynamic freedom and flight,’ says Talwar. Powerful and lightweight, these wings could be attached and removed on demand by robot surgeons. take that, Icarus.

SUPER SIGHT

‘Gene therapy has cured color blindness in monkeys,’ says Talwar. ‘Eventually, science may expand our color vision to include all wavelengths, from gamma rays to ultraviolet to radio waves.’ It raises the prospect of night and, dare we say it, x-ray vision.

SUPER STRENGTH

‘Physical and genetic enhancements applied to your bones and muscles would improve your body mass index and performance,’ says Talwar. Reinforced bones would be harder to break. Best of all, most of this could be achieved with minimal commitment to diet and exercise. Who said there was no gain without pain?

HIGHER CONSCIOUSNESS

‘Advances in pharmaceuticals and neuroscience could lead to a breakthrough drug designed to experience a higher state of consciousness,’ says Talwar. It could be recreational or therapeutic. ‘This could be perfect for coping with mid-life crises, anxiety disorders or recovering from addiction,’ adds Talwar.

BODY MASTERY

‘Through deep brain stimulation, humans may eventually have total control of how much physical sensations affect them,’ says Talwar. You could dial down your touch sensitivity before or during pain, but dial up experiences during intimate moments or during a particularly exciting part of a film or game.

BIONIC HEARING

‘As humans age, we naturally lose the ability to hear higher frequencies. in the future, we may be able to reverse this,’ says Talwar. Aural implants directly connected to our brains could eventually enhancing human hearing beyond the normal range.

Mon, 28 Jan 2019 11:00:00 +0000https://canyoustandthetruth.com/?p=2194The possibility of a reversal of the geomagnetic field is more likely than ever since there is a continuous acceleration of the movement of the magnetic poles

The best way to prevent a worldwide panic for an upcoming global disaster is to re-direct the peoples’ attention ELSEWHERE!!!

So the elit of the planet, either by simply emptying the peoples’ pockets they create financial crises —collecting all their gold at the same time— or by eliminating democracy they incite uprisings and create a problematic and difficult everyday life. With these techniques or other similar ones, the attention of the masses is easily re-directed towards the constantly growing everyday problems that the ‘controllers’ methodically arrange in order to avoid the danger of people observing/seeing the upcoming instantaneous reversal of the magnetic poles of the earth, that will dissolve the planet’s atmosphere.

Such a discovery by large portions of people would risk causing an uncontrollable situation. But all these are planned on the basis of a wider panic prevention plan.

Meanwhile the elite of the planet, is preparing for the worst that lies ahead, building underground shelters, storing seeds

and storing our digital DNA imprint, deep inside the Alps.

At the same time, they silence the respected scientific community, since it also agrees that it would be better for the masses not to know! So at the best case scenario, the important news of this kind or the ones that cannot be ignored, will be aired at the end of the news broadcast, passing as unimportant, and the actual serious events are downsized…

And the disturbance of nature is intensified, without the official scientific community officially sharing the real causes of extreme weather phenomena, but giving the rough explanation of the alleged ecological pollution!

So, just like in kindergarten, where they keep children busy with crafts, they reassure the sensitive ones, making them collect plastic bottles and caps from the beaches, planting trees and recycling materials, so that they may feel the satisfaction of contributing to the reduction of the supposed ecological pollution …

However, the (for centuries) inert volcanoes are being activated, earthquakes are multiplying, the land in many places recedes unexpectedly and swallows up buildings and entire building blocks,

the ice is melting in accelerating speed, the amount of annual rainfall continually increases, the rivers overflow and drown the cities,

hurricanes succeed one another with ever-increasing frequency, and all that, is being considered by the unsuspected ones to be “natural”. Thus they continue their lives by putting their hopes to one or the other political party, waiting for it to take them out from the manufactured economic crisis!!!

On the other hand, some opportunist conspiracy theorists, are claiming that the elite of the planet, is set to wipe us out…But what is really happening, is that the actions that are secretly carried out to rebalance climatic disturbances –in order to extend the earth’s lifetime- have as collateral loss, the disturbance of the peoples’ health (see chemtrails). So with their manic-persecutory conspiracy theories, they contribute to a greater silencing of the real causes, turning the attention of the gullible to the wrong places.

However, as time passes, these climatic disturbances will be intensified…

But what is the root-cause of all this climate of unrest?

1. SHIFT OF THE MAGNETIC POLES OF EARTH

The reversal of the planet’s magnetic poles occurs after large time intervals with an average of about 250,000 years. But the last reversal happened 780,000 years ago –surpassing the specified time by a lot -, and fate demands that our generation witnesses a new one…

The shift of the magnetic poles will result in the weakening and disruption of the magnetic field of Earth which protects the planet from deadly radiation coming from outer space.

The strong explosions of space radiation, that normally never touch the atmosphere, are causing strange phenomena in the sky, and generally in the atmosphere.

These explosions of space radiation, will heat up the upper layers of the Earth causing abrupt climate change. , The greatest risk however, will come from intense explosions of solar radiation. Normally, these are treated by the magnetic field of our planet. But if it disappears, storm particles will start bombarding the atmosphere.

Dr. Paul Murdin, of the Institute of Astronomy in Cambridge says:

“These solar particles can have profound effects. When Mars’s magnetic field, failed to become permanent – billions of years ago – it led to the dissolution of its atmosphere. On Earth, the lack of it will heat up the upper atmosphere with huge and unpredictable effects on the climate. “

Elchin Khalilov, Chairman of:
(a) The World Organization for Scientific Cooperation,
(b) The International Committee for Global Geological and Environmental Change and -GGEC GEOCHANGE and
(c) The Global Network for the Forecasting of Earthquakes, claims that those muffled noises that alarmed the residents of many regions of the Earth in 2011-2012, were the result of explosions in the atmosphere, and answers the question about the nature of these strange noises:

“We analyzed recordings of such sounds and found that the spectrum of most can be found in the range of infrasound, which cannot be heard by humans. What people hear is a small fraction of the actual power of these sounds. These are low frequency acoustic emissions in the range of about 20 to 100 Hz modulated with very low frequency waves.

They are created in the upper atmosphere, at the atmosphere-ionosphere border in particular.

… In our opinion, the source of such loud and vast manifestations of acoustic gravity waves must be due to a wide range of energy processes.

These processes include very powerful solar flares and the huge amount of energy flowing from them is rushing toward the Earth’s surface, destabilizes the magnetosphere, the ionosphere and the upper atmosphere.

Thus, the effects of powerful solar eruptions, the impingement of shock waves of the solar wind, the streams of particles and the electromagnetic radiation bursts, are the main causes of generating acoustic waves of acoustic gravity that follow the increase of solar activity. “

Of course acoustic effects of that nature are not common in our world, but are rather unprecedented, because of the paradox universal conditions that have sterted manifesting.

Elchin Nusrat Khalilov on Twitter gives a chilling insight into the Earth’s future and in summary states that the changes happening on Earth have a threatening global character and the greatest danger is the behavior of the magnetic fields of the Sun and of the Earth. The possibility of a reversal of the geomagnetic field is more likely than ever since there is a continuous acceleration of the movement of the magnetic poles and a decrease of the intensity of the magnetic field. These unusual energy changes are happening simultaneously to other planets in our solar system as well.

In July 1967, researchers of the University of Cambridge suggested that possibly the extinction of dinosaurs and other prehistoric reptiles 65 million years ago, happened because of the reversal of the magnetic field of the earth, due to the weakening of the protective magnetic shell because of intense solar effects. Thus the land was subjected to dangerous waves of cosmic radiation, which brought profound changes in the climatic conditions and generally to the living environment.

With the magnetic poles shift, many species of animals and birds and fish that migrate based on their ability to follow the Earth’s magnetic field, will face very serious orientation problems.

Dead Birds-Louisiana

The following video shows how the Earth’s magnetic field affects the behavior of living organisms.

2. THE SOLAR MAGNETIC FIELD WEAKENS

Alongside the weakening of the Earth’s magnetic field due to the shift of the magnetic poles, there is also a weakening of solar winds, i.e. the constant current of charged subatomic particles emitted by the sun.

The solar wind, that “transfers” the magnetic field of the Sun, creates a large protective sphere around the solar system, which is the “boundary” with interstellar space, the heliosphere.
But the solar wind is at its lowest strength of the last five decades, reducing the natural “shield” that surrounds our solar system. The heliosphere also diminishes in size and strength, allowing a biggest portion of cosmic rays to reach the inner solar system and by extension the Earth.

The maximum value of solar activity, constantly decreases.

Observations conducted with the solar telescope SOHO, recorded the extremely weak magnetic field of the Sun’s poles, something that greatly affects the mechanism of sunspot formation. In mid 2013 the average number of sunspots –sun spots smaller than usual- was around 105, far less than the average of the year 2000 (about 120 spots), thus predicting a solar “maximum” both delayed and quieter -after the new solar activity that was expected in 2012, begun in mid 2013-.

All observations to date indicate that this solar “maximum” will be of the lowest recorded so far, and will not be anywhere near the solar maximums of previous years. Many astronomers are convinced that the solar maximum, is finished…

The weakening to the point of disappearance of the magnetic fields of both the Sun and the Earth due to the shift of their magnetic poles, will have dire consequences on the planet’s surface, leaving the Earth unprotected, not only from the bombardment of solar radiation but also from cosmic radiation. This will result in the activation of volcanoes, powerful earthquakes and tsunamis, the emergence of strong hurricanes and intense extreme weather events with extreme (very high and very low) temperatures.

All these therefore are the reasons that in reality affect the climate of the Earth and not so much the environmental pollution. That is why some countries (because THEY KNOW) did not sign the Kyoto Treaty…

Vladimir Baskin, who is waiting for a new frost season on the Earth, believes that climate change is not caused by human activity but by solar changes and says:

“Scientific climate research of previous geological periods, forces us to doubt the necessity of the Kyoto Protocol requirements. The Protocol limits emissions of greenhouse gases and allows the marketing rights of these emissions. The emission of carbon dioxide is a normal natural process, and not solely the result of human activity. “

The Indian tribe of Hopi has a prophecy about the end of the world:

“There will be a time when the Earth will be surrounded by invisible threads and through these threads people will communicate with each other. (Internet and wireless communication …) When this happens then the world will end. “…

]]>THE WORLD OF AGATHON LIES OUTSIDE PLATO’S CAVEhttps://canyoustandthetruth.com/the-world-of-agathon-lies-outside-platos-cave/
Sun, 27 Jan 2019 21:42:06 +0000https://canyoustandthetruth.com/?p=2139The whole description of the Plato's cave allegory, outlines the Matrix in which we the people, reside. Our world is a virtual reality.

Most of us are now convinced that we live in a Matrix. This Matrix is not our habits and not the way we live our daily routine. It is the whole universe that surrounds us. It is our whole solar system, the galaxies, the nebulae, the things our eyes and our machines see.

Scientists accept this view point and they have made public enough evidence that support this concept. In particular astrophysicists M. Danezis and S. Theodosiou in their book “Cosmology of Intellect” write:

This fact (of the projection) is given with great clarity in the allegory of Plato’s cave. Socrates says to Glaucon (in condensation):

Picture men imprisoned for life and chained in a subterranean den.

These men remain in the same spot since childhood and they have their legs and necks chained in such a way, so that they are unable to move and able to look only forward.

Inside the den at a distance and higher up behind them burns a fire

But the only thing they can see, are the shadows cast from the fire on the wall of the cave that is in front of them.

In front of the fire, behind the backs of the prisoners and above them there is a road.

Along this road there is a low wall and “people” walk on this road carrying various objects.

But what the prisoners can only see, are the shadows of these objects, projected on the wall of the cave. The truth to them is the shadows of the images.

This is exactly where the allegory describes what the scientists say about the “projected shadow” where a non-perceptible spherical vortex is projected to our world as a particle.

The objects that in reality pass in front of the fire and behind the backs of the prisoners correspond to what is described as a “moving, non-perceptible spherical vortex inside the n-dimensional non Euclidean field”.

What the prisoners see projected on the wall of the cave in front of them, are the shadows of the objects. This is what the aforementioned scientific article describes, and then it says:

“…the projected shadow (of the non-perceptible vortex) in the three dimensional Euclidean space, is perceived as an elementary particle.”…and is projected as form/shape.

However, there is a point here by which many analysts of “Plato’s cave” get confused because they place the Truth and the Real world where the fire is; behind the backs of the prisoners, because this (the fire) causes the shadows to project on the cave’s wall.

But this is a fallacy that does not allow them to explain the allegory correctly. Let’s decode the symbols at this point of the allegory of the Cave: The whole description of the allegory, outlines the Matrix in which we the people, reside. The world that surrounds us, is nothing more than a virtual reality.

The theory of quantum strings, considers the fundamental constituents of the universe, not as particles but as strings. Different modes of vibration of the strings represent the different types of particles.

They say that in reality shapes, sounds and smells do not exist, but are different types of oscillations. Therefor we receive electromagnetic waves of different frequencies and perceive them as colors. We receive pressure waves, but perceive them as words. We take in compounds from air and water, but feel them as odors and flavors.

The brain functions as a holographic interpreter and decodes a holographic universe.

So understandably Pindar said that “Σκιάς όναρ άνθρωπος”. Man is a dream of shadow.

Let us then assign the symbols:

—The imprisoned men are us, in reality we don’t have the ability to see our true selves but only the shadows that are projected in our (Euclidean) world!

—The road on which the objects move, that are projected on the cave’s wall, is no other than the energy world (the moving non-perceptible spherical vortex of a n-dimensional non Euclidean field), from where the material plane is projected as form/particle. It is therefore, the space of quantum vibrating strings.

—The fire that is behind the road and naturally closer to the cave’s entrance, symbolizes the god/creator of this world.

He is the “the Archon of this world” as Christ calls him in the Gospels.

About this “Devine firepower” Hermes Trismegistus writes:

“And an infinite world was created where fire predominated with magnificent force, trying to stay in place…”

And at another place:

“The Nous (Mind) God who is male-female, Life and Light, gave birth to another creator Nous, who is the god of fire (pyre) and of the spirit and the creator of the seven commanders who encompass the tangible world within circles and their command is called Heimarmene (Destiny).”

And the apocryphon Gospel of John writes:

“And she called its name Yaldabaoth. This is the first Archon… he became strong and created for himself other aeons inside a blaze of luminous fire, which still exists now.”

So this is the fire that burns behind the backs of the prisoners, the fallen god, THE CREATOR OF THE MATRIX.

THE GOSPEL OF JUDAS“And look, from the cloud there appeared an [angel] whose face flashed with fire and whose appearance was defiled with blood. His name was Nebro, which means ‘rebel’; others call him Yaldabaoth.”

He is the one that oversees so that no one of the prisoners escapes.

The Apocryphon first book of Adam and Eve writes:

“Satan begun with transforming his hordes; in his hands there was a flashing fire, and they were in a great ‘light’. He then place his throne near the mouth of the cave…and he shed light into the cave, until the cave glistened over Adam and Eve, while his hordes began to sing praises. And Satan did this, in order that when Adam saw the light, he should think within himself that it was a heavenly light, and that Satan’s hosts were angels; and that God had sent them…When therefore, Adam and Eve saw the light, fancying it was real, they strengthened their hearts;”

How similar are the analogies!!! If we view the words of Socrates to Glaucon from the description of the cave “literally”, we will understand that they describe the same situation as the above quote from the apocryphal Book of Adam and Eve.

“Picture as if in a subterranean den, …men having from childhood their necks and legs chained, so that they remain in the same spot able to look only forward and prevented by their bonds from turning their heads. Picture further the light from a fire burning higher up and at a distance behind them”

We mustn’t confuse the flame or the road from which the shadows are projected … with the real worlds! Because:

“When the light mixed with the darkness, it caused the darkness to shine, but when the darkness mixed with the light, it darkened the light, so that it became neither light nor darkness but it was weak, it became dim (and became twilight)” says the Apocryphon of John

If now one of them was released from his bonds and was compelled to stand up suddenly and turn his head around he would see all the objects that were passing in front of the fire and behind the backs of the others, he would become aware that all he had seen before was only an illusion. Then he would realize where the shadows were coming from and he would be confused about what is real: the objects or their shadows. And if he was compelled to go outside the cave later on, his eyes would hurt from the suns true light because he would come from the (dark) “light” of a fire.

And he wouldn’t be in a position to see (accept) reality!!!…He would react exactly as Neo reacted in the Matrix when he first saw reality.

He would have to get used to it. He would first watch the shadows of objects of the real world, then their reflections in the water and then the objects themselves.

After that he would look at the sky and the moonlight and he would observe the sun as it really is.

And he would remember his old residence in the cave and the “wisdom” that his companions prisoners had… when they were giving prizes to those that were able to see faster the passing shadows, and to those that were better in predicting which shadows will come first and which later…

And if he returned back in the cave and was called for a match for who is the faster and more precise in the predictions, then he would find that his sight is weak, since he came from the absolute light into the cave’s darkness, and he wouldn’t be able to see clearly.

Everyone would start laughing at him, saying that he lost his sight by going out and that thinking of going out wasn’t worthwhile.

So, those who look to the World of the True Light, and possess the 7th Sense of Truth- appear “blind” and “inadequate” compared to the “experts” of the world of deception and of the Matrix…

This is the difference with the 6th sense, which is cultivated by people who do not know the truth of the Real Worlds.

It’s all them that acknowledge this world of illusion, as a creation of the True God!

It’s them that confuse the light of the fire- that is in the cave- and represents the fallen god/creator of the Matrix, with the True Light of the Real Worlds of the Hyper-Universes as they are called in the book: “Can you stand the truth? The chronicle of man’s imprisonment “

The Real World, the world of “Agathon”, LIES OUTSIDE THE CAVE, and it differs from the objects that pass behind the backs of the prisoners and are projected on the cave’s wall.

These objects are the greatest deception, for all those who consider them as the “truth” of the world!

It is them, who consider themselves “experts” compared to others that see only the shadows; and are subjected to even greater captivity, because even though they were given the chance to look behind their backs , they were content from that and were satisfied considering themselves lucky. … Here fits the saying, “imperfect knowledge is worse than ignorance”!!!

Those who are submissive and in bonds, the only gift they can receive from the god of fire, is the sixth sense of prophecy about the world of illusion and the ability to predict which shadow will precede and which will follow …

And Socrates continues:

“If then someone tried to free anyone from the prisoners, the rest would catch him as a violator and would kill him. But it is the duty of the informer, not only to climb and see the “Agathon”, but to be willing to go back down to the prisoners and share their problems and their honors whether they worth it or not. And he must do so even in the prospect of death.”

So let’s watch this video to understand the difference between our world and the Worlds of Truth.

]]>A new cosmology model suggests that our Universe has a mirror image in the form of an “anti-universe”https://canyoustandthetruth.com/a-new-cosmology-model-suggests-that-our-universe-has-a-mirror-image-in-the-form-of-an-anti-universe/
Sat, 29 Dec 2018 18:06:52 +0000https://canyoustandthetruth.com/?p=2131The big bang was also the starting point of an antiuniverse, where time runs in the opposite direction and antimatter dominates.

From a certain vantage point, our Universe looks lopsided. Time runs forward as space expands, and there’s more matter than antimatter. This seems to violate a fundamental symmetry, called CPT symmetry, that says physics is unchanged when time, space, and matter-antimatter are all flipped. To balance out the cosmos, Latham Boyle, Kieran Finn, and Neil Turok from the Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics in Canada propose that the big bang was also the starting point of an antiuniverse, where time runs in the opposite direction and antimatter dominates. They show that such a CPT-symmetric model is not only consistent with the known cosmic expansion history but also provides a straightforward explanation for dark matter.

The CPT-symmetric model is an alternative to inflation, which assumes that the Universe went through a brief epoch of exponential growth right after the big bang. This rapid expansion can explain certain cosmological observations, but it requires the existence of additional, still hypothetical quantum fields. Boyle and colleagues show that their proposal can explain early cosmic evolution without inventing new physics. In the CPT-symmetric model, time and space flow continuously across the big bang, and the antiuniverse that emerges in the negative time direction behaves like a mirror reflection of our Universe.

The team has yet to show whether this model can reproduce certain observations that the inflation scenario explains—such as the uniformity of the cosmos on large scales. However, the new model gives a natural explanation for dark matter: a CPT-symmetric Universe would produce large numbers of very massive sterile neutrinos. Such superheavy neutrinos might also be the source of recently observed high-energy cosmic-ray showers.
